This is just an outtake because someone reviewed saying that they were confused as to why Martin was home, because he had gone away to college. Here you go, hope this clears it up!
To answers a few things: Ann: First of all, thank you. I finally was able to get Microsoft Office Word. Secondly, yes reading back over the writing, I somehow missed the period after the Exlamation point; along with the wrong use of "It's". Yes, you're right; I am young. I'm sixteen. So, yes, I am still learning. That doesn't excuse my poor grammer/spelling/punctuation before. I'm not defending that. I'm only saying, yes you're right. I am young and I am still learning. Also, yes I did take some of the comments to heart; because I started writing for another fanfiction on here and really wanted to do good. Plus, I have someone look over my writing and now I have Office. Now, as to why Martin's back, I realize that I left that part out in the original plot. I'm sorry. I didn't exactly have an idea as to why he was back when I wrote that. This idea popped into my mind and well, I hope this clears up your confusion!
Also, no I didn't know that Martin and Ruthie never saw each other. I am aware he went off to college; but I kind of stopped watching it after season 10 ended. Anyway, hope this outtake clears things up!
Wildfirefanatic08: Thank you! It's alright; I can take the truth. I realize that my writing is still not the greatest and looking back, I realize just how bad it was. And yes, I was able to get Microsoft Office Word, so thank you, again! I took my time and read some other fanfictions on here, such as Twilight and focused on how the authors wrote. So, I hope I learned something.. Thank you for reading!)
Ruthie tapped her fingers on the tile on the island and watched as Martin ate another cookie. She couldn't take it and said,
"Why are you here?" His head shot up and he looked confused. He frowned and said,
"What do you mean?" Ruthie crossed her arms and said pointedly,
"You know exactly what I mean," Martin rolled his eyes and caved. He said,
"I heard you were home." Ruthie shrugged; acting as if she didn't get it. Martin said,
"So.. I wanted to come and see you?" Ruthie asked, "Why? Aren't you..busy?" Martin shrugged and said,
"Not really. Sandy's got Aaron right now and plus she had to go down to the church here for some classes she's teaching." This obviously wasn't good enough for Ruthie, from the look on her face; Martin sighed and said,
"Alright. Can't I just come and see my bestfriend?" It was more of a statement than a question. Which irked Ruthie. How dare he? Didn't he know he had lost that title when he left? Martin looked at her expectendly, waiting for her answer. She answered quietly,
"No..you can't." Martin looked confused and asked, "Why not?" Ruthie said more loudly,
"Because she's not here, anymore!" Martin didn't answer; he knew Ruthie all-too-well and just let her finish yelling. Ruthie continued,
"I'm NOT your bestfriend, Martin! You lost that title last summer!" Martin went to to speak but Ruthie wasn't finished. She said,
"You left her when you went to support that…..that….WHORE!" Martin looked taken aback at her words. Then his face turned angry. He said,
"He's my son, Ruthie!" Ruthie crossed her arms and said,
"Are you positive about that? Ever had him tested?" Martin didn't answer this. Ruthie said,
"That's what I thought." Martin shook his head and said,
"He's my son, Ruthie! Okay?" Ruthie shook her head and said,
"You know..he has Simon's hair color.. Ever notice that? Or, are you just too blind?" Martin stood there, fuming inside. Deep down, he had thought about everything she was saying. Ruthie said,
"Face it, Martin. I've grown up. I grew up when I went to Scotland. It was a great getaway for me. From this place, this town, and" she pointed at him as she said, "and you." Neither of them said anything.
